Belly Rubs

Rudy just had to get in on the belly rubbing action. He gets a little jealous still, so he felt he was "due."

Reading time

Joe and Joey had reading time today. It was A MESS. Joe was reading from a Winnie the Pooh book, and Joey was listening intently. Next thing I know, I hear Joe read, "And Eeyor said...or Jackass...or whatever the hell his name is..." JOE!!!!!! AHHH!!!!

What am I going to do with him? Our poor son is going to think that he can use "those" words. I'm becoming more and more conscious of my language everyday, but JOe...i'm having to work on him. ha! PRAY FOR US!!!! :) Poor Joe is going to have some hard times. I can hear his kindergarten teacher calling now.......

Tour End

Here's a photo of Joe and his two buddies, Paul (left) and Brad (right), from the Seger tour. I had the chance to meet these two guys in Memphis. They took great care of my Joe while he was away from me. :)

THe tour is officially done, and I'm glad. I feel like a complete person now that he's home. He gets to watch his little man grow every day now, with hardly any interruption. Its gooooood to have him home. Ahhhhhh.......

By the way, Joey is growing so fast. He's trying to roll himself over now, and he laughs at EVERYTHING! He is quite the little character!

Hey you with the camera.....

He's just a little squirt here....

Sleepy Cheeks

Zzzzzzzzz........

Friends???

As I've probably mentioned before, Rudy hasn't exactly been chipper about our new family addition, but tonight, he took a big step toward acceptance. The picture says it all.

He jumped up on the bed, came over to where Joey was napping, sniffed his little arm, and the curled up next to him.

((Don't worry, Mom and Dad!!! I was watching him REALLY CAREFULLY!!!!))

....this is good, but I still don't trust the little stinker.....

By the way, check out that baby jungle gym Joey is under. He's having a ball with it!!!....that is when he's not napping on it.

Wanna see what Joe's been up to?

As I've mentioned, JOe's on the road these days with Steve. Here's a little footage they caught at the end of one of his sets. Steve's been receiving standing ovations every night of the tour, which is great! Check it out!

Bath time fun!!!

I captured this pic tonight at Joey's bathtime. I can't take it.... he's so cute!!! I want to squeeze him! :)

Iowa vs Irish

Two great teams..... look out! :)

((Funny after I mentioned i had no pics of joe, this one mysteriously popped up. I'll get more. All our pictures lately show us all looking pretty rough. We hardly have time these days to "dress up"...but that's alright.,...not too many folks to impress, and Rudy and Happy said they don't care what we look like.))

All smiles!

I need more "Joe" photos. When he's home next, he's going to get it. haha! Here's another of Joey and me. A little blurry, but it'll work.
